WHAT IS KLIFE?
KLIFE is a discipleship ministry for 3rd-12th grade kids in the Hot Springs area!
We host Klubs, SuperK!, small groups, and monthly events throughout the year to bring kids together for great times and lasting memories! We put on large events in hopes that students will be introduced to KLIFE and learn more about what KLIFE can offer them. From there, we hope that students get plugged into small group Bible studies that are designed to help them grow in their relationship with the Lord. All of our small groups are led by full-time staff members or vetted and trained college and young adult volunteers. Finally, our students are pursued in an intentional setting for true discipleship and support through their teenage years. In KLIFE, kids learn that living a life for Jesus is the greatest decision they can ever make, and that He is better than anything that the world has to offer.
OUR MISSION
TO POINT STUDENTS TO JESUS SO
THEY CAN MEET HIM, KNOW HIM, FOLLOW HIM
AND BE EQUIPPED TO POINT OTHERS TO HIM ALSO.
WHY IS KLIFE IMPORTANT?
ONLY 2 IN 10 CHRISTIANS GRADUATE WALKING WITH JESUS
Research shows that for every ten Christian’s who step foot on a college campus, only two graduate still professing to believe in Jesus. The overwhelming common denominator for the two out of ten is they had someone intentionally investing in them during their teenage years; someone like a KLIFE small group leader.
Teenagers are walking onto college campuses unable to defend their faith, but when a young adult shares their life with a teenager, transferring spiritual truths and life experiences, they are far more likely to continue walking with Jesus through college.
MODEL FOR MINISTRY
GROW EXCITEMENT: Our desire to provide a safe environment through gatherings, full of energy, laughter, and fellowship, where Biblical truth is heard, Godly community is experienced and relational equity with students is built as their excitement for the Gospel grows
ENGAGE HEARTS: Our Small Groups are the “heartbeat” of our ministry & comprised of same-gendered peers that gather on a weekly basis with a trained leader to study Scripture, encourage spiritual growth, promote accountability within the group and engage hearts to rely on the hope found in Jesus
SHARE LIFE: Our Small Group leaders are trained to pursue their students not only during small group time, but also seeking out intentional discipleship opportunities to meet students where they are at. This context is often necessary to address the deeper issues students are facing, as well as provide specific gospel centered truth, encouragement and guidance as they share life together
